Syrian Army keeps rolling in west Daraa as new areas are captured

BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:00 P.M.) – The day continues to get worse for the jihadist rebels in west Daraa, as their forces have now lost more territory to the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and their allies.

Led by the Tiger Forces, the Syrian Arab Army intensified their attack in west Daraa this afternoon, targeting several towns and hilltops inside the Daraa Triangle region.

According to a military source in Daraa, the Syrian Army advanced east of Tal Al-Harrah, seizing the town of Al-Jadira after the jihadist rebels of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham completely withdrew from the area.

Meanwhile, in the Daraa Triangle, the Syrian Army captured the towns of Khirbat Al-Mulayhah and Umm Al-Aswaj after another short battle with the jihadist rebels.

The Syrian Army also entered Kafr Shams in the Daraa Triangle, following the large deployment of troops to the area today.

The Syrian Army is now on the verge of capturing the town of Aqraba, which is also located inside the strategic Daraa Triangle region.

Once the Syrian Arab Army is able to establish full control over the Daraa Triangle region in the northwestern part of the province, they will shift their attention to the jihadist-held areas in the Al-Quneitra Governorate’s southern axis.
